At least one person is dead after a car plowed into Charlottesville protesters. Police have taken the suspected driver into custody. Mic tech reporter Taylor Lorenz reports “the police have the plates, the car, and the man in custody.”

Earlier, Virginia State Police spokeswoman Corinne Geller told Fox News that three vehicles had collided in downtown Charlottesville. Geller added that the car seen backing away with a smashed hood in the above video had been located.

The crash occurred approximately two hours after clashes in which hundreds of people screamed, chanted, threw punches, hurled water bottles and unleashed chemical sprays on each other ahead of the scheduled noon demonstration.
